Wooden Floor Lamps

1. Natural Aesthetic Appeal

• Wood adds warmth, texture, and a natural touch to any room.

• Pairs well with various décor styles – from Scandinavian, bohemian, to modern rustic.

• Each product has unique grain patterns, adding a sense of character and craftsmanship.

2. Eco-Friendly & Sustainable

• Wood is a renewable resource, especially when sourced from FSC-certified forests.

• Many product are made from reclaimed or recycled wood, reducing environmental impact.

• Fewer synthetic materials mean a lower carbon footprint than plastic or metal options.

3. Versatility & Timeless Design

• Wooden suit living rooms, bedrooms, offices, and even reading corners.

• Wood finishes (oak, walnut, bamboo, etc.) can match a wide range of furniture.

• Unlike trendy metal finishes, wood rarely goes out of style — making it a long-lasting décor choice.

Yes, you can use our products for task lighting—but its effectiveness depends on several factors, including the lamp's design, bulb type, and adjustability. Here's a detailed explanation:

1. Lamp Design Matters
Not all wooden floor lamps are designed for task lighting. Many are decorative or provide ambient lighting.

For effective task lighting, the lamp should have a focused or directional shade (e.g., downward-facing or angled), not a large fabric shade that diffuses light.

Look for designs that resemble reading or pharmacy-style floor lamps, even if the base and pole are wooden.

2. Adjustable Features Are Key
Height-adjustable or swing-arm designs make wooden floor lamps more practical for tasks like reading, writing, or crafting.

A tiltable head or directional arm lets you aim the light where it’s needed—essential for reducing eye strain.

If your lamp has a fixed shade pointing upward, it’s likely not suitable for task lighting.

3. Use the Right Bulb
Choose a bright LED bulb (at least 800 lumens) with a cool white (4000K–5000K) color temperature to improve focus and visibility.

Make sure the lamp supports the wattage and heat output of the bulb you choose.

Some wooden lamps are better suited for low-heat LEDs, since wood can be sensitive to high heat.

4. Stability and Safety
Ensure the wooden base is sturdy and well-balanced, especially if you'll adjust the lamp frequently.

Wood is non-conductive and generally safe, but always make sure the wiring is modern and up to code.

1. Purpose & Placement

• Functionality: Decide whether the light is for ambient lighting, security, or accent/decorative purposes.

• Placement: Consider where it will be installed—front door, garden wall, driveway, side alley, patio, etc. Each may require different brightness or IP rating.

• Mounting height matters too; up/down lights often need to be installed at eye or shoulder level for the best visual impact.

2. IP Rating (Weatherproofing)

• For exposed outdoor locations, go for at least IP65 to withstand rain and dust.

• In sheltered areas like under eaves or covered patios, IP44 may be sufficient.

• Coastal or windy regions require corrosion-resistant materials (e.g., marine-grade stainless steel or powder-coated aluminium).

3. Light Output (Lumens)

• Check the lumens rating to match the brightness with your needs:

  • 100–300 lumens for gentle ambient lighting

  • 300–600 lumens for driveways or porches

  • 600+ lumens for security or high-visibility zones

• If you want dimmable lights, make sure the bulbs and switch are LED-compatible.

4. Power Source: Solar, Mains, or Battery?

• Solar-powered: Easy to install, energy-efficient, but less reliable in UK winters.

• Mains-powered: Stable performance but requires professional wiring.

• Battery-powered: Portable and flexible, but batteries need regular replacement.

5. Style & Finish

• Match the light’s design with your home’s exterior style—modern, traditional, industrial, coastal, etc.

• Choose materials and finishes that complement your architecture (e.g., matte black for contemporary homes, brushed brass for vintage charm).

6. Sensor Features (Optional)

• PIR Motion Sensors: Light only turns on when movement is detected—good for security and energy saving.

• Dusk-to-dawn sensors: Automatically turn lights on at sunset and off at sunrise.

• Some lights offer multiple modes (e.g., always on, motion-triggered, dim + motion).

7. Installation & Maintenance

• Make sure the fitting is easy to mount on your wall type (brick, wood, render).

• Consider accessibility for bulb changes, cleaning, or solar panel exposure.

• If you’re not comfortable with electrical work, factor in the cost of professional installation.
